[edit] List of Included Reports
[edit] Statistics
[edit] Request Statistics by Analyst
This statistics report lists all the enabled Analysts and statistics based on SLAs configured in Priorities.
[edit] Columns
![Lsd reporting statistics 01.png](/support/images/d/d4/Lsd_reporting_statistics_01.png)
[edit] Current Open
The number of Requests that are currently open within the date range specified.
[edit] Opened in Range
The number of Requests that were opened within the date range specified.
[edit] Re-Opened in Range
The number of Requests that were changed from a Suspend or Closed status to a Continue status within the date range specified.
[edit] Closed in Range
The number of Requests that were closed within the date range specified.
[edit] Achieved Target
The number of Requests that were resolved within the Resolve Hours within the date range specified.
[edit] Missed Target
The number of Requests that were not resolved within the Resolve Hours within the date range specified.
[edit] No Target Set
The number of Requests that were not assigned a Priority, or were assigned a Priority without a configured SLA, within the date range specified.
[edit] Closed By 1st Assign
The number of Requests that were closed by the first Analyst assigned within the date range specified. This can be via manual assignment by an Analyst manually creating a Request and assigning it to themselves or a different Analyst, or via auto-assignment. The key is that the Request was only assigned to one Analyst, then closed.
[edit] Closed By Later Assign
The number of Requests that were closed by an Analyst other than the first Analyst assigned within the date range specified. This means that more than one Analyst was assigned to the Request, e.g. in a two-tier support system, First-Level Support was unable to resolve the Request and assigned it to Second-Level Support.
[edit] Average Durations
The display of the average duration is controlled by the setting Statistics Duration Display in Administration > General Settings > Request Settings. The options are hours and minutes or decimal.
[edit] Avg Duration
The average duration, in hours, that Requests were open, for the specified date range and filters. Default Working Hours and closed periods are ignored.
[edit] Avg Duration 24hr
The average duration, in hours, that Requests were open, for the specified date range and filters. In this case, the duration is calculated based on 24 hours a day, ignoring Default Working Hours and closed periods.
[edit] All Requests First Resolution
First Resolution means the Request was resolved by the end of the first contact, with no comments from the Analyst. To count, the Request has to be closed within the specified period. A Request owned by an Analyst, but not assigned to that Analyst at the time of closure, does not count.
Example: An End User phones the servicedesk, the Analyst opens a Request and closes it in the one session.
The report lists all the Analyst Groups, starting with Requests not assigned to an Analyst Group. The Request Class menu can be used to select (All) Request Classes, or a filter out a specific one.
[edit] Columns
![Lsd report stat all req first res.png](/support/images/5/59/Lsd_report_stat_all_req_first_res.png)
[edit] Logged In Period
The quantity of Requests for each Analyst that were created within the specified date range.
[edit] Total Time Spent
The total time spent on first-resolution Requests.
[edit] Average Time Spent
The average time spent on first-resolution Requests.
[edit] Resolved on First Contact
The number of Requests resolved on first contact.
